Population Definition

Children are NOT small adults

ICH E11 (R1) : age categories

preterm newborn infants (from day of birth to the expected date

of delivery plus 27 days)

term newborn infants (0 to 27 days, en discussion)

infants and toddlers (1 month (28 days) to 23 months)

"children" (2 to < 6 & 6 to < 12 years)

adolescents (12 to < 18 years)

Disease (“condition”/ MEDRA) and indication to be defined according to paediatric needs

To integrate in the paediatric development, according to appropiate

variables (ie. drug, disease, physio-pathology / relevant age-subset)

physiological development

Different in each age-stage, dev. not linear

Neonates: organs / maturation (kidney/liver, % fat, metabolism)

Infants, children: CNS, immunity, ….

Language, swallowing, motor dev. / walking

Bone growth, hormonal / sexual maturation & dev.

Adolescents : cognitive / psychosocial

Disease knowledge recent and evolving(particularly in rare diseases)

Diseases are less known in children (ex: autism, migraine…)

Less consensus : scientific societes, WG, publications ongoing (ex:

ILAE definition of epileptic types/syndromes 2017, neonates seizures INC

2018, initial ages for inclusion vs first diagnosis discussed on orphan diseases;

methodological issues on small pop EMA WS 2017)

Scales for endpoints defined or revised continuously, to be validated

according to the ages of the patients under investigation (ex: QOL, MFM

vs 6MWT, 4SC in neuromuscular dystrophies, EVA – CHEOPS for pain, …)

Importance of published data on epidemiology, disease-registries (natural history), pb?, with data on dose, short and long-term efficacy and safety

Standardisation & validation of appropiate scales

Disease knowledge still variable

Less frequent:

Diseases only existing in children

Rare diseases, orphan (ex: genetic deficits with different phenotype /

age « subset », metabolic deficits)

Different aetiology / diagnostic / evolution in children (ex: chilhood

epilepsies, HTA, depression)

Different patient care (standard of care) / countries - centers:

Pharmacology investigation with innovative methods are necessary

Contraints of formulation / excipients, swallowing-school attendance

From 2007, within EMA - key role in fulfilment of Paediatric Regulation

provisions (link with FDA, etc)

Main Tasks

Assess content of PIPs and requests for waivers/deferrals and

provide an opinion

Check compliance of an application with agreed PIPs

Provide advice on any question relating to paediatric medicines (at

the request of the Agency's Executive Director or the European

Commission) / WG + Scientific Advice + GL / WPs + PRAC ….

Supports EMA on the creation of a European network with

specific expertise in the performance of studies in the paediatric

population

The PDCO is not responsible for MAAs & Art. 45-46 review for products

for paediatric use, which is responsibility of the CHMP/CMDh NCAs

However, CHMP may request the PDCO to prepare an opinion on the quality,

safety and efficacy of a product if these data have been generated in

accordance with an agreed PIP

application, exceptionally can also be conducted in parallel

In the latter case, validation is suspended until compliance is verified

The compliance request procedure will last 2-3 months

Letter of Intent (-1 month)

Compliance request submission

PDCO opinion within (30 or) 60 days of receiving the request

By the EMA-coordinator and the Rapporteur

If partial compliance, issue of a compliance report within 10 days

If final compliance Issue of a compliance report and opinion on compliance within 10 days

Compliance check is different than data assessment

"Yes" or "No" on the binding elements

No negotiation, no clock stop, no re-examination

Context Delays in completion and results reporting of clinical trials under the

Paediatric Regulation in the European Union: A cohort study 2010-2014

(Thomas J. Hwang, Paolo A. Tomasi, Florence T. Bourgeois) Plos medicine March 2018

PLoS Med 15 (3): e1002520. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pmed.1002520

326 paediatric clinical trials for 122 novel medicines authorised by the EMA

76% (247/326) of paediatric studies not planned to be completed at initial MA

Rate of completion CS : 23% (56/247) for those planned completed after MAA vs 86% (68/79)

for trials planned to be completed before authorisation (adjusted hazard ratio 0.11; 95% CI

0.06±0.19).

Completion dates for 50% (162/326) postponed by a median of 2.2 year

38% (124/326) of paediatric studies completed as of 30 November 2017

Among completed studies, publication reported in a public registry or in the peer-reviewed

literature for 85% (105/124) at a median of 1.1 y. after study completion, and 60% (74/124)

were published in a peer-reviewed journal

(Limitations: medicines not authorised by the EMA and possible trials to be completed or

published in the future)
